WARNING
Operating the Remote Handle Levers
While a Rear-Facing Child-Restraint
System is in the Rear Seat:
Operating the remote handle levers
while a rear-facing child-restraint
system is in the rear seat is dangerous.
It could cause injury to a child seated
in the child-restraint system when the
seatback suddenly flips forward.
Always remove the child-restraint
system from the rear seat before
operating the remote handle levers for
the rear seat.
WARNING
Folding Seatbacks with Remote
Handle Levers:
Not checking the rear seat area for
persons before folding the seatbacks
with the remote handle levers is
dangerous. The rear seat area is
difficult to see from the rear of the
vehicle. Operating the remote handle
levers without checking could cause
injury to a person when a seatback
suddenly flips forward. Make sure
there is nobody in the rear seat area
before operating the remote handle
levers.
When using the remote handle levers:
CAUTION
Be careful of the following when using
the remote handle levers:
l
On a downward slope, the seatback
could flip forward faster than on a
flat area.
l
On an upward slope, the seatback
may not fold down. When the
seatbacks cannot be folded down
with levers, pull the rear seatback
forward from inside the vehicle.
1. Unfasten the lap portion of the rear
center seat belt (page 2-23).
